Summary of reviews
Guests say
Guests appreciated the hotel's great location and friendly service, with many praising the cleanliness of the rooms. However, the breakfast options were often criticized for being limited and repetitive, and some felt the overall value for the price paid was lacking. Overall, the hotel offers a pleasant stay but has room for improvement in its breakfast offerings.AI-generated from customer reviews
